Activities at Brook House Care Home

Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

A trip to Kew Gardens

We went out in the minibus this week and visited the famous Kew Gardens! Resident and staff thoroughly enjoyed the outing to the elaborate botanical gardens. They got the opportunity to see various fruit and collection of flowers on show as well as the latest Temperate House. In addition we had a delicious picnic on the grounds of the park. An amazing time was had by all and we hope we can visit again soon.
